* AnticlimaxBoss: The rematch with [[spoiler:Gorgon]] in episode 15 only lasts for a few minutes, which is a stark contrast to her appearance seven episodes earlier. Since a lot of fans were hoping for another epic clash, this time with Ana involved in the fighting, many were disappointed by how quickly it was ended. While there are some reasons its justified she would be weaker, the fight is so quick that it begs the question why the fight didn't last longer, especially when the final fight with the other Goddess' lasted almost an entire episode.

* EnsembleDarkHorse: Tiamat is this. While she was never unpopular in the game, until the anime came out Tiamat received little to no fanart from the fandom. There wasn't even any Rule34 about her until the show proper came out forcing many to play the game to figure out what was happening.

*** It isn't Ishtar's fault she [[spoiler:lost the Bull of Heaven]], it's [[ItMakesSenseInContext Ishtar's]]![[labelnote:Explanation (spoilers for Fate/strange fake)]] It's strongly implied that Ishtar didn't actually lose the Bull of Heaven herself, but rather that Filia, Ishtar's incarnation in Fate/strange fake, summoned it from the Singularity to attack Gilgamesh and Enkidu. She saw it as a setting not connected to anything, so she figured it would do no harm to bring it from there. Oops.[[/labelnote]]

** Useless Goddess Ishtar[[labelnote:Explanation]]Episode 17 shows the long awaited scene when Ishtar reveals she lost Gugalanna, resulting in Gilgamesh calling her a useless goddess and later being forced to carry a tablet that says the same thing. Doesn't help that Ishtar's crying and whining is very similar to one of [[LightNovel/KonoSuba Aqua's breakdown]], the originator of the useless goddess meme.[[/labelnote]]

* AwesomeEgo: Merlin is completely egotistical, believing he'll outshine every other Caster servant, but, at the same time, he is a Grand Caster candidate and one of the most famous wizards in history. Even now, years after he was first released, Merlin is widely considered one of the best--if not the best--servant the game has created. If the show's version is on par, his ego is likely justified.

** It's downplayed in comparison to his Archer incarnation, but Gilgamesh also fits. He's wiser and more mature as a result of having settled down to rule Uruk, but he's still extremely arrogant and supremely confident in his skills. The combination of his ego in conjunction with his additional maturity ends up making him even well-liked by people who hate his Archer version!

** NO JUSTICE BOMB 0/10 [[labelnote:Explanation]]Episode 11 contained a fan-favorite scene from the story arc, in which the protagonist, realizing that Quetzalcoatl cannot be defeated and isn't evil, is lifted by Ishtar to over 200 meters, and either gets incredulously thrown off or embraces the silliness of the situation and [[CallingYourAttacks shouts the name of a lucha libre move]] as they fall onto Quetzalcoatl. The anime not only played the scene very seriously, it relegated the impact to a cut-away shot that skipped over Quetzalcoatl saving Ritsuka from his fall. The fanbase is openly hoping for the dub cast to ad-lib the line when they handle the same scene.[[/labelnote]]
